I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | Does your baby like to eat as soon as they get up? This is just something that I have been wondering about. Stedman is so silly and picky and he refuses to eat when he first gets up in the morning. I have to give him at least an hour for him to "wake up" and "get going" before he will eat his food in the morning lol...he is such a little mess. I don't know if this is because he is NOT a morning dog or what, but it just cracks me up that he is this way lol. I guess he just takes after his mommy and daddy, not wanting to eat as soon as he wakes up Stedman likes to sleep in too Tatum and I have been up since 5:00 a.m. and Steddy and daddy have been in there sawing logs up until about 20 minutes ago. Stedman (well both of my babies actually) have to be with me AT ALL TIMES...but if I get up at 7 a.m. or whatever, Stedman refuses. He will just lay there and look at me like I am nuts for even waking up that early And if I TRY to get him out of bed, he just lays back down and totally ignores me Geez! I guess so STEDMAN LOL. You little sleep head!!! Anyway, sorry for blabbing...but I was just wondering if any other babies are like this? I messed up again this morning and tried to feed him about 10 minutes after he woke up and he was NOT having it. He refused to eat so I guess I have to try again in about an hour lol. I don't know why he does this!! Tatum would eat in her sleep LOL. She is ready and willing to eat anything and everything at ANY TIME if you just wave it in front of her face Do I have a Ms. Piglet and a Mr. Picky or what! Geez.....lol.

| Leo eats about 10 minutes after we get up. I fix his food then place it on the ground and he will eat. While I mix it he goes to his potty pad and has his morning potty,then he will come sit and eat and drink a little water. Then it's play time and we are running through the house chasing the kids. ha ha

| Holly wants to eat right away. Gracie is not a morning person and she is not a breakfast eater. She much prefers to lounge around in bed for several hours after I get up. She then may or may not decide to indulge in a bit of brunch before her noon nap. She does enjoy a bite or two of my toast in the morning.

| Zoe gets up when we do (6am-7am) and will eat right away. Then she wants to potty, play and then sleep. She nibbles here and there throughout the day but will eat dinner at 9pm. Sounds like Stedman is just not a morning person---nothing wrong with that--neither am I. LOL!!

| Chewy will only eat in the morning if its human food. I leave her dry food out all day and she will nibble usually just once a day. Sometimes she has a big lunch and sometimes a big dinner. Occasionally shell eat twice. |

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | That's so cute; I thought that was the only reason they did get up. Joey's my alarm clock, and his tummy decides when I get up, which is about a half hour too early. Right after breakfast he goes down for a "nap", but once I'm up, I'm up.

Donating Senior Yorkie Talker | When we get up I take my little guy, Toby, outside for potty time and some running and playing. He eats 30-60 minutes after he's been up. Kind of like his skin family.

| Everyone here is ready to eat before we even get out of bed!! If a visitor came to our house and watched the morning ritual, they would think my dogs haven't had food for a week!! Eat, Out, Sleep, Play, Sleep, Patrol, Sleep, Repeat!

| All 3 of my babies 'live' to eat!!! They are always up at 5 a.m. ready to eat and play. On the weekends I let them go potty and give them a small snack so that we can go back to bed for another hour or so. I sooo wish I had sleepyheads
